Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 686
Chapter 686 Rising Ye Feng
In the fourth round, the Zhong Clan was sent to the edge of the cliff. If they lost this round, the Zhong Clan would have no way to retreat. It was estimated that the entire Zhong Clan would have to smash the pot and sell the iron to return the 40 million Origin Essence Pills.
“In the fourth round, you will use the Brussels Cabbage River as your back. Jing, the details are up to you to control!”
Old Master Guo asked a question. Although it was late at night, the surrounding lights were brightly lit. It was no different from daytime, and even more elegant.
The two of them came to the front of the case, and their divine senses stretched out towards the surroundings, looking at the entire Brussels Cabbage River. The first person to write was Zhong Wuyan.
She was like a wandering dragon swimming back and forth on a rice paper, and the embryonic form of a majestic cabbage river had appeared for the first time.
This Zhong Wuyan’s painting was actually so outstanding. It seemed that she was planning to burn the boat. She could afford to lose, but the Zhong Clan could not afford to lose.
Ye Feng took a deep breath and picked up the Consuming Brush. It was like a long sword appearing in Ye Feng’s hand. With a sweep, Ling Feng danced and a long Milky Way appeared.
“What kind of drawing is this?”
Quite a few people were attracted by Ye Feng’s drawing skills. This was not drawing at all, it was more like Ye Feng was cultivating some kind of sword technique and fusing sword intent into the painting intent.
No one knew that Ye Feng was not drawing. Instead, he was carving an inscription technique to carve the Grand Dao of Heaven and Earth into this painting.
Ye Feng swiftly swam his body, the brush tip emitting a fierce aura. Ye Feng used the misty mist, coupled with the eighty percent sword intent, the feeling of walking through the abyss like a pen, like a wandering dragon or a hidden dragon.
The time it took to draw was still an incense stick. The two of them didn’t dare to pause, even if it was to draw a prototype.
After more than ten breaths of time, the shadow of the Brussels Cabbage River appeared. The next thing that followed was the embellishment. Whoever was more realistic and had the shadow of the Brussels Cabbage River was naturally the winner.
Ye Feng’s figure was like ribbons with twin wings. His body danced and various fuels interweaved into beautiful ribbons in the air. It was extremely beautiful.
“Good, good, good!”
On the side, Wang Ziao and Tong Shen continuously clapped their hands. Regardless of whether Ye Feng’s painting was good or not, they continued to work hard, causing the surrounding people to roll their eyes.
At this moment, Tang Tian was the only one who was calm. Regardless of whether they won or lost in the final round, their Tang Clan had already made a profit.
Everyone in the Zhong Clan was pale. Even if they won the last round, the Zhong Clan would definitely bleed profusely. They would even hollow out the entire clan. Although they had been ranked third in the past few years and had obtained quite a few resources, they were simply unable to take out so many Origin Essence Pills.
Under everyone’s gaze, an incense stick of time passed by in the blink of an eye. Both of their paintings were nearing the end, and they began to finish.
Ye Feng also stopped his movement. The brush tip in his hand was gently embellished. A crash could be heard from his painting. It was as if a river was surging, a hidden dragon was howling, and a breeze was blowing.
“How could this be!”
Everyone looked at Ye Feng’s painting in unison. They even ignored it for Zhong Wuyan and surrounded Ye Feng’s case.
“This is a masterpiece of heaven. This old man has truly opened his eyes today!”
The great merchant let out a sigh. He actually called Ye Feng’s painting a masterpiece of heaven. How highly valued was this?
Everyone else stepped forward and watched the torrential flood flow past him. Wasn’t this the Brussels Cabbage River? Ye Feng had actually let the painting live.
It wasn’t just the people on the boat that he saw. Everyone in the void and on the shore could sense the sound of the river flowing from Ye Feng’s paintings. There was the sound of boats gliding, laughter, and curses.
“How is this possible? How did he do it!”
Some people began to suspect that Ye Feng had cheated. This was not a painting, but a miniature version of the Brussels Cabbage River.
On the other hand, Zhong Wuyan’s painting was very exquisite. She had painted the entire Brussels Cabbage River without any flaws. Even a small detail had been painted by her, almost without any pickiness.
“The Zhong Clan is going to be unlucky. Who knew that if it weren’t for Ye Feng, the Zhong Clan would be able to suppress any side of Fire City at any level?”
Someone looked in the direction of the Zhong Clan with sympathetic eyes. If they hadn’t met Ye Feng, the Zhong Clan would have completely defeated their opponent.
However, Ye Feng, a monster, had appeared. The first challenge was to defeat his opponent in terms of zither skills, and even to win with an attitude of complete victory.
In the second round of chess, although Ye Feng had an element of opportunism and even secretly used shady moves to exchange for victory by losing chess pieces, victory was victory. The so-called “never tiring of war, the path of a soldier” was false and true.
The third stage was Wen Cai Pass. Everyone had nothing to say about this stage. Perhaps no one could find fault with Ye Feng’s poem.
However, everyone was completely convinced by Ye Feng during this fourth trial. Not to mention Fire City, this painting was probably only a handful of things that could be obtained from the entire Qinli Middle Continent.
“Trash, they’re all trash!”
Zhong Yang waved his sleeve and planned to leave. There was no need to look at this painting, because even his confidence was shaken. He could not compare Zhong Wuyan’s painting with Ye Feng’s.
“Zhong Yang, do you want to leave just like that?”
Tang Tian smiled coldly at this moment. All of a sudden, the surroundings quieted down. Ye Feng also returned to his seat. The atmosphere on the stage suddenly became very dull.
“Tang Tian, what are you doing!”
Zhong Yang pretended to be confused and didn’t understand what Tang Tian was going to say.
“Now that the results of the four rounds have appeared, is your Zhong Clan going to fulfill their promise?”
Tang Tian’s eyes were filled with a smile. These 40 million Origin Essence Pills were enough for the Tang Clan of Fire City to develop for more than ten years, and it was even possible for them to instantly jump to the number one clan in Fire City.
“How can our Zhong Clan rely on this little bit of resources? Once I return, I will immediately prepare for you!”
At this moment, the onlookers were all people with high status in Fire City. Zhong Yang could not deny it, so he dragged on for a while.
“Just this little bit of resources?”
Tang Tian sneered. How could he not see through Zhong Yang’s thoughts? After he left this place, it was impossible for him to obtain even a single Origin Essence Pill from the Zhong Clan.
“That’s right. To your Zhong Clan, these 40 million Origin Essence Pills are indeed not many. Please cash them now!”
Tang Tian praised the Zhong Clan and asked him to cash it on the spot.
“You …”
Zhong Yang was so angry that he was speechless. Forty million Essence Pill, this was going to drink his blood!
“Old Master Guo is also here today. All the famous people in Fire City are here. You don’t want to go back on your word, do you? We have an agreement. If you don’t take it out, I’ll have to go to the Zhong Clan’s inner house to get it.”
Tang Tian wasn’t afraid of Zhong Yang’s shamelessness, so he went to the Zhong Clan to get it.
“Hmph, Tang Tian, I’ll let you feel proud today. I can’t take out 40 million Essence Pill for a while. I need to go back and prepare for it.”
Hearing Tang Tian’s words, Zhong Yang knew that he couldn’t deny it. Once he found out about the Inner Palace, the Fire City branch would lose so many people. In the future, the Fire City Zhong Clan would never be able to obtain the support of the Inner Palace again. They would even lose the qualifications to enter the Inner Palace. Zhong Yang couldn’t afford to gamble.
“Very good, I’m at ease with you, but we have to have a deadline. In three days, we will send someone to personally obtain it. If you can’t take it out, don’t blame our Tang Clan for being heartless!”
When it was time to be ruthless, Tang Tian was more ruthless than anyone else. His tone was filled with gloom and coldness, causing many people around to tremble.
Zhong Yang wished he could swallow Ye Feng. If it wasn’t for this kid, how could the Zhong Clan owe the Tang Clan 40 million Essence Pill? In fact, it might even be the Tang Clan that was embarrassed today.
At this moment, Zhong Qiang was like a defeated rooster with a dejected expression. Everything that happened today was because of him. If it weren’t for him fighting and winning, it wouldn’t have ended like this.
However, regret was useless now. The only way to vent his anger was to kill Ye Feng.
The other clans all lowered their heads and pondered. What happened today gave them a wake-up call. They even began to examine the Tang Clan from afresh, especially this Ye Feng. Why had there never been any news of him before, as if it had appeared overnight?
Lan Shan smiled bitterly in the distance. If Zhong Qiang hadn’t stood up, he would have definitely made things difficult for Ye Feng. The matter at the restaurant made Lan Shan feel resentful.
If it was him, would the Lan Clan be humiliated today? Thinking of the 40 million Essence Pill, Blueshan couldn’t help but shiver.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Lan Jiang sensed the changes in Blue Mountain and asked.
“Nothing much!”
Lan Shan quickly prevaricated so that Lan Jiang wouldn’t notice anything.
“This Ye Feng has risen too quickly. We still can’t figure it out. Don’t provoke him for a while!”
Lan Jiang said to all the other Lan Clan disciples.
“Yes, Senior Brother!”
Lan Jiang’s voice was very strong, and his status in the clan was very high. These disciples did not dare to go against him.
The Youjia side was also the same. They discussed and began to investigate Ye Feng’s origin. It seemed that Ye Feng had only been in Fire City for two months, so how could he rise so quickly?
Of course, the happiest person was the Tang Clan. The disciples on this side began to cheer. The entire atmosphere immediately boiled. Tang Yan’s face now had a smile on her face, and she spoke more to Ye Feng and the others.
“Ye Feng, you’ve become famous overnight. I’m guessing that even the inner sect will pay attention to you. After all, such a big thing will definitely spread to the inner sect’s ears.”
Tang Yan’s tone was slightly sour. At the beginning, she did not like Ye Feng. She did not expect that Ye Feng’s fame had reached a peak in just the middle of the night. In fact, it even spread throughout Fire City. Almost everyone knew about it.
“Junior apprentice-brother still needs to thank senior apprentice-sister for her guidance. If it weren’t for senior apprentice-sister, junior apprentice-brother wouldn’t have gotten off to a good start!”
Ye Feng smiled bitterly. It would be better if it could reach the inner house. If it could not, Ye Feng would also rely on his own efforts to find a way to enter the inner house.
In Fire City, it was considered a big deal. It was estimated that it wouldn’t be a big deal if it spread to the inner clan. Forty million Essence Pill was basically a drizzle to the five great clans of Qinli Middle Continent.
“Let’s go!”
Feeling the discussions in the surroundings, Zhong Yang didn’t want to stay any longer. He brought the Zhong Clan disciples and prepared to leave the boat and return to the clan.
“Wait!”
A cold shout appeared. This time, it was not Tang Tian who stopped Zhong Yang, but Ye Feng. Ye Feng slowly stood up and looked in the direction of the Zhong Clan.
“Little bastard, what else do you need?”
Zhong Li shouted angrily. If it weren’t for Ye Feng today, how could the Zhong Clan have lost so many Origin Essence Pills?
A trace of killing intent flashed in Ye Feng’s eyes. This Zhong Li repeatedly called himself a little beast, which had already offended Ye Feng’s reverse scale.
“The agreement stipulates that the loser must kneel and kowtow. You don’t need to go back to prepare for this. You can fulfill it now.”
Ye Feng’s words caused the surroundings to stir up another wave of frenzy. Ye Feng actually wanted the Zhong Family to kneel before him. This was simply too crazy.
